Beautiful Death

Birthed from Uranus's blood, the Erinyes are the punishers of sinners, also called "those who walk in darkness." The heads of the Erinyes were wreathed with serpents, their eyes dripped with blood, and their whole appearance was terrific and appalling. Sometimes they had the wings of a bat or bird, or the body of a dog.

As long as there was sin in the world, they could not be banished. According to Virgil, there were three sisters: Alecto ("unceasing"), Megaera ("grudging"), and Tisiphone ("avenging murder"). Vengeance personified.

"Not even the sun will transgress his orbit but the Erinyes, the ministers of justice, overtake him."
